  1. How to set up an ideal remote learning space for kids

    If you plan to set up a study area for your child in the bedroom, you will need to make a few changes, to make sure that your child has a space that is functional too, rather than just sleep inducing.

    Make space for a formal study table- There is no solid study without a study table. The seating matters tremendously, especially when it comes to children. Seating affects posture, which in turn affects health, and ill health leads to low attention span. Not surprisingly, research has also shown that using a study desk is directly related to a child's academic performance. So, a study desk is a must. If making space is difficult, with the study table getting in the way of the TV, consider getting a hidden TV lift cabinet. There are hidden TV lift cabinets that are made specifically to house the TV at the foot of the bed, freeing up space elsewhere.

    Do away with distractions- The greatest challenge of setting up a remote study area is to keep it distraction free. As screen and Zoom call fatigue

  2. How to build a hidden TV lift cabinet

    What do you do when you can’t stand the black hole of a TV at home? Or when the side profile of the TV on the wall looks horribly ugly? Obviously, you can’t just take the TV off the wall and be done with it. You simply need a TV when you want to watch it.  It is precisely when you are stuck with such a problem that the TV lift mechanism comes in to save the day (and the TV and your peace of mind)!

    Amy from HerToolBelt just couldn’t stand the sight of the TV on the wall. She used our TV lift mechanism to solve the problem. As awesome as she is with tools, Amy created a cabinet with sliding barn doors. This cabinet features a hidden compartment. It is here that the TV lift mechanism is placed with the TV mounted onto it. So, what looks like a charming living room cabinet, secretly contains the TV and is a hidden TV lift cabinet!

  3. How a hidden TV lift cabinet can baby-proof your TV

    Having a TV is not a problem, but keeping it safe is definitely an issue, especially with a baby around.  Babies are curious little beings who enjoy going on discoveries and adventures that often end up as misadventures and accidents. 

    Why do you need to baby-proof the TV?

    A 2020 report stated that 11,000 children were injured in furniture and TV tip-over-related accidents each year. Babies aren’t very good at balancing and will try to clutch anything that they think can save them from falling. In the process, the child falls, but ill-placed heavy furniture or the TV falls onto them as well, complicating matters tremendously. That makes TV and baby security a matter of high priority.

    What is a  hidden TV lift cabinet?

    hidden TV lift cabinet is a cabinet that contains a pop-up lift mechanism on which the TV is installed. The mechanism can lift the TV out of the cabinet or hide it in the cabinet.

  4. Awesome home office upgrade with a TV lift mechanism

    Most of us hadn’t given the home office much thought until we were forced to stay home and work out of that semi-ignored space.  And that is when DIY Builds realized that their home office desperately needed an upgrade.  Once the upgrades started, there was no stopping them.  Here is what DIY Builds did with their home office.  You can see the whole build here.

    The old home office had two desks set up right next to each other. There was enough workspace, but the look did not tie in well together. So, he decided to create a twin computer table desk and added a special feature to it. He used the TV lift mechanism to hoist a TV on it, which he strategically hid behind the desk unit!  Turned out amazing.

    There are some undeniable advantages of having a hidden TV lift mechanism in your home office. 

    1. Raises the style quotient- More than anything else, automation adds a touch of luxury to the decor. With a simple press of the remote, the TV lift mechanism props the TV up. The TV suddenly

  5. How To Build A Top Secret Cabinet Lift

    If you think our TV lift mechanism are meant only for TVs, you’re in for a big surprise. Read on to know what Doug at Artfully Rogue did with the lift! You can watch the video here.

    Out of an entire range of TV lift mechanism sizes (from 25 to 46  inches), Doug chose a 25-inch lift for his project. The sturdiness of each lift is unbeatable, letting you choose whichever size you want, without any anxiety. Of course, common sense and specified weight limits are the only considerations. 

    The motor and controller come ready to use. You don’t need any assembling. The mounting kit also contains screws to mount the TV onto the lift mechanism, but that is if you want to use it as a TV lift mechanism. Doug clearly had other plans.

    Doug used metal tubing to make legs and rails. Next, he welded it all together to make a frame. Once the frame of the cabinet was made, he placed a metallic plate at the bottom, making a sturdy base, to place the TV lift mechanism on. Another metallic plate was used

  8. 5 ways to add style to your bedroom

    The bedroom is the place we head for when we are tired and desperately need to rest.  Yet, it is also the space we like spending time in when we want to simply sit back and enjoy life.  So, it doesn’t quite make sense to have a bedroom that is sleepy all the way. It deserves a bit of style and a dash of creativity too.  There are tons of ideas that you can use, but here are our favorite ones: 

    • Minimize the clutter- Just like you can’t think straight when there are too many thoughts cluttering up the mind, clutter in the bedroom totally kills the style. A style can evolve only when you get the clutter out of the way. Some things can straightaway be put away or even discarded, but then there is the clutter than you have to live with- the mess of wires and gadgets around the TV. Since you can’t quite throw it out, the next best thing is to camouflage it in a hidden TV lift cabinet. The hidden TV lift cabinet will have enough space for your TV, the wires, and other accessories and gadgets.

  9. 4 tips to breathe life into your living room

    A living room is the space you share with acquaintances, friends, and these days even more so with the family.  Everyone has a living room, but most of these spaces are dull, dead, and boring. Just placing things in the living room won’t breathe life into it, but these tips certainly will.

    1. Tie in the look- The most common mistake people make in styling their living room is having pieces that simply don't fall in place to give one unified look.  You don't necessarily have to throw out all your furniture.  All you need to do is brainstorm a way of using accessories like cushions or rugs to connect everything.  Looks break the continuity of things and sends out awkward vibes.
    2. Make it cozy- If you happen to have a large living room, chances are that you will have your furniture up against the walls, too far from each other, to actually encourage conversations. Conversation needs coziness and proximity, and that certainly means cutting down on distance.  Place couches at a comfortable

  10. Smart room partition/divider ideas

    The “openness” of open floor layouts can be quite intimidating, and so you need to break the monotony.  One of the most convenient ways of doing so is by setting up a divider to create separate spaces. There are tons of smart ideas that you can use.

    1. Panels- Panels are an effective way to divide a large space into smaller spaces. Panels are not nearly as defining as walls, but function very well as partitions. They come in an entire range of materials including wood, bamboo, and glass. Panels are semi-permanent in the sense that they need a little bolting either into the walls, the ceiling, or the floor. Still, they offer a lot of variety in terms of design and even alignment.  
    2. Sliding glass doors- Sliding glass doors are used to create much more defined spaces than panels can. They also cut out sound to some extent, making the partition a lot more effective. The panels can be clear glass or frosted glass, depending on the degree of privacy  you require. 
    3. Screens- Screens are available
